Match Preview
Wilson weighs up Hoskins call Sheffield United manager Danny Wilson must decide whether to hand new striker Will Hoskins a place in his starting line-up against Wycombe. Hoskins, signed on loan from Brighton until the end of the season, was denied a debut last week as the Blades' league clash at Colchester was postponed. Richard Cresswell has been partnering leading goalscorer Ched Evans in recent weeks and Hoskins may have to settle for a place among the substitutes. Another striker, James Beattie, sits out the second game of a three-match ban but midfielder Nick Montgomery is expected to return to contention following an ankle injury. Marcus Williams is pushing for a starting place at left-back after replacing Lecsinel Jean-Francois for the last 30 minutes in the last outing, a 4-0 home FA Cup defeat to Birmingham. Stuart Lewis will hope to regain his place in the Wycombe team. Lewis found himself in the unfamiliar surroundings of the substitutes' bench against Tranmere. The 24-year-old has been a regular pick in midfield for Wanderers since joining the club on loan from Dagenham last season and then signing a permanent deal in the summer. He made his debut from the bench in November 2010 but had since started every game - barring injury or suspension - until last weekend when he was rested. On loan Watford striker Matty Whichelow is likely to keep his place in the side after scoring on his debut in the 2-1 win over Tranmere. Defender James Tunnicliffe has joined Crewe on a month-long loan deal.

Match Report
Blades hot on the heels of Owls Will Hoskins' debut goal helped Sheffield United to a 3-0 win over Wycombe as Danny Wilson's side moved up to third place in League One. Substitute Hoskins pounced in the 66th minute, five minutes after replacing Richard Creswell, before Ched Evans and Kevin McDonald sealed the points to leave the Blades just one behind Sheffield Wednesday with two games in hand over their city rivals. After an opening period of dominance from the promotion-chasing home side, Wycombe top scorer Stuart Beavon fired narrowly wide of the upright after 15 minutes before McDonald saw a right-footed drive fly inches wide of a post at the other end. Evans had a golden chance to put the hosts ahead within five minutes of the restart but the usually reliable striker smashed Matt Lowton's throughball the wrong side of the right post. Hoskins then replaced Cresswell and the Brighton loanee made an immediate impact, reacting quickest to Michael Doyle's ball into the box to slot underneath Nikki Bull. The Blades doubled their advantage seven minutes later when leading scorer Evans swivelled and fired into the bottom right-hand corner. And Scottish midfielder McDonald completed the scoring with a 25-yard deflected drive in added time.
